THE ANNOUNCEMENT of the death of
Eliza r. Snow-Smith was rea with
great sorrow by majority of the PEG
pie of the Junction City. Although not
unexpected, the passing away still
seemed to those who knew the gifted
and noble lady-and who did not know
her 2-as having come to soon; yet the
will of the Omnipotent is recognized as
being all wise, and feeling of resigna-
ton to the inevitable pervades the
sor owful.
On SUNDAY afternoon, at about 3
o'clock, the spirit of Elder Rufus Allen
departed this life at his home in River
dale. Brother Allen was a worthy old
gentleman and q true-hearted man and
Latter-day Saint. He passed through
all the troubles of the SAINTS in Missouri
aud Far West, having be- n baptized into
the Church on the 25th of July, 1885.
He was born on the 22d of March, 1914.
and had thus passed the allotted age of
man-three score years and ten. He
was highly respected by his friends and
army of acquaintances, apd truly be-
loved by his family.
The INTENTION of Senator Palmer, of
Michigan, to introduce a measure in
the Senate, the object of which will be
to restrict immigration, was a subject
of interesting conversation on the
streets yesterday, SO far as it will affect
the believer in the Mormon religion.
There is a certain affinity apparently
existing between Senator Palmer and
Mr.. Edmunds, inasmuch as the latter
desired to restrict the immigration of
Mormons domestically, while MIR. Pal
mer is turning his intention to the
foreign importation. Surely the de-
sired end ought to be achieved with two
such protective laws in operation.

UNNECESSARY

Nothing can be more incontrovvertible
than the declaration of the Democratic
national platform, that unnecessary tax
alton is unjust taxation" No govern
ment has the moral or the legal right to
tax people beyond the needs Of It's
treasury -. ~
The tax laws Of the United States are
now producing 100000, 900 in excess Of
the expenditures of the government, ev.
en- upon the lavish scale ordained by
Congress. This is unjust taxation. 1t
is needless, and, therefore, an ;oppress.
i've burden upon the people. Such be.
ing the case it will be- the duty, as
should be the purpose, of Congress at
the approaching session. to "prevent the
surplus by reducing taxation".
Exactly how this shall be done no off:
hand judgment can rightly decree. In
the present division of both parties upon
the question some compromise, founded
upon mutual concessions; is no doubt
necessary. That in such a reduction
the universal necessities of the people
should be first relieved and luxuries con.
tinue to be taxed while the war legacies
remain is the plain dictate of sound
statesmanship. But in some way tho un.
necessary taxation should be promptly
abated and both parties should deem ii
patriotic duty to toaccomplish this result.
